With his recent releases picking up tastemaker support from Above & Beyond, Dada Life and Porter Robinson, Andrew Bayer continues his prolific purple patch with another genre-merging big room banger in "Once Lydian".
A favourite from his set at ABGT050, Alexandra Palace, "Once Lydian" blends elements of electro house, progressive tech, ambient electronica and emotive trance in Andrew's inimitable and uniquely musical style.
With more sides than a Rubiks cube, "Once Lydian" starts off hard hitting and gnarly, breaks into a deep, entrancing build-up before a melodic release that is epic and explosive in equal measure.
Having hit the iTunes electronic chart #1 with last year's experimental "If It Were You, We'd Never Leave", Andrew continues to re-connect with his big room roots with forthcoming releases already scheduled both as a solo artist and as a third of the hotly tipped outfit Artifical with Norin & Rad.
Dimitri Kechagias review: One of the most important music composers is back. The outstanding Andrew Bayer returns on Anjunabeats with his latest big room meets trance anthem that is already supported by the label heads Above & Beyond and Armin van Buuren in his radio show ASOT. Andrew Bayer with his electronic album proved that he can communicate his ideas and thoughts through abstract noises, emotional melodies and minimal sound textures. In 2014 Andrew is about the enter the big rooms with fantastic high class anthems like his forthcoming single Once Lydian. Despite the fact that EDM style is the most warn out sound that everybody seems to produce these days as the crowds demand to have it particularly on open air festivals while they jump around, Andew Bayer shows his impressive talent and delivers a very unique stand out and extremely powerful track that wins your attention straight away and you will straight away will focus on it. The aggressive basslines, the mechanical drum beats and the dark haunting atmosphere take us on board for this surprising sonic ride. The breakdown is luscious, dreamy, mesmerising with cinematic strings and highly emotional themes. When the beat drops Andrew delivers the pay off moment you can expect to get with powerful banging slamming beats, euphoric synths and the melancholic emotional layers that can make some cry as well. It's a highly energetic track that shines with its exceptional quality and stands easily out from the rest. Highly recommended for trance & mainstage prog house sets. Love iT
